Cowboys Dez Bryant surprise speaker at domestic violence rally

Cowboys wideout Dez Bryant made a surprise appearance at a rally Saturday for men against domestic violence named “Dallas Men Against Abuse.” Bryant also took the opportunity to apologize for his role in a domestic altercation last July involving his mother.

“Here’s all you need to know,” he said. “I’m done with domestic abuse.”

“I made a mistake,” Bryant told a large crowd that attended the rally spearheaded by Dallas mayor Mike Rawlings. “I just want everybody to know, it’s not good to hit women and I challenge every man out here to X all domestic violence of your life.”

Great to see him get involved and perfectly understandable that he’s done discussing the incident. As long as there’s no repeat, people should be able to move on.

Bryant also has a new lady in his life. Dez shouted out Dallas native Brianna Hootks on Twitter recently saying she means the world to him. He then deleted it but, baby steps.  Oh don’t worry, I have it for you. Just wanted to make sure you have all the information. ::giggle::
